Hi Mariam, well it happens that I work in the field of emails and stuff, and I can differentiate between Spam and not, and this is actually not considered to be spam.
it doesn’t have any images, only pure html, and text. no reference to anything outside, so it won’t ping back to any other site, actually most of the time I check my email by opening a connection on port 143 (IMAP), (command line).
Also this email is sent to me only from actual gmail servers. which means that this guy is sending emails to everyone by sending an email by composing to each one through the interface of gmail (which is not a good thing for spammers (and not useful). unless he is sending through a curl script. but Gmail (like most webmails) have a security check for this type of sending.
Also it’s deferent than the usual 419 scam. as these are not trying to offer you money for doing a service.
anyway thanks for dropping by

common man, thats a spam email, the content does not matter, its the ping back they were looking for, and now that u opened it they know u exist
have u ever received an email with: hello friend, known about u from some mutual friend, i live in south africa, i need help in smuggling a zillion dollars, will give u a cut if u help… bla bla bla… thats pretty much the same
